Broken Characters List

Push2Stops

The Bugs and Issues section is far too expansive to be of use so this is an attempt to have a regularly updated (assuming the Mods and Devs will participate) and accurate list of literally broken characters. Please do not add unbalanced characters or changes you would prefer to see, nor AI issues (such as Talia's use of Water of Life), only characters whose moves do not match their in-game descriptions.

This thread can really help to clean up our forum, keep the Devs aware of these types of issues, and save players from farming characters only to find disappointment so thank you to any who can contribute.

Old Ben leader ability does not add 25% turn meter on evade as per the description.

FOTP still will attack 3 times on an advantage proc after the second attack of double tap.

Cythis

Storm trooper is missing 5 armor from his G8 gear keeping him at 113 instead of 118.

Darth vaders basic is not working against Jedi as stated

DarthBalls

QGJ humbling blow on level 6 is not taking away positive status effects all the time. When it does... It sometimes only gives offense up to QGJ and not all allies (as stated in his abilities).

Can also vouch for Vader and the Jedis.

RonTom

Dookus leader ability doesn't seem to be working properly. The buff goes away straight away if a toon dodges a counterattack (fact) and the evasion bonus doesn't seem to be working either (rumour).

FirstOrder66

Ewok Elder is not healing FO characters in GW.

MegaRainbow

I noticed QGJ's assists always hit for the Jedi bonus amount of damage. Anyone else seen this?

Push2Stops

Teebo's Bring Low doesn't remove all positive status effects.

QGJ's "Harmonious Assault" gives a damage bonus to any assisting ally; it doesn't mention anything about being exclusive to Jedi. Not a bug/issue.

Can't claim this with certainty, but an odd thing I've noticed:

Debuffs appear to be getting applied far more frequently if the debuffing character is called to assist (example: target is Poe, my QGJ uses Harmonious Assault, calling Sideous to assist, Poe gets the healing immunity debuff from Sid consistently this way, whereas I could use Sid's basic on Poe normally and it gets resisted about 70% of the time). Basically I think assisting characters don't roll against tenacity if they have a debuff attached to their basic (exceptions: %-chance to apply debuff still seems to function normally; if opponent has a "Tenacity Up" buff, they still get resisted, so it at least doesn't bypass this).

Anyone else notice this?

SinnerWill

Multiple modifiers of the same stat don't stack (possibly intended). Some examples: leader abilities when borrowing a hero that modifies the same stat(s) - only one version applies, typically the stronger one, which can void out multiple stat-modifiers of the other leader (example: Borrow IG-88, have Sideous leading. You get IG-88's crit chance modifier and lose Sideous's crit damage bonus as well as crit chance).

Uniques with leader skill conflicts: Rey's unique for offense up in combination with Poe's or Finn's leader buffs. Her offense up (unique skill, passively applied when she doesn't have a debuff) doesn't stack with them. Other examples: Maul with Sid/IG-88 leading after meeting the condition for Maul's crit chance buff to occur; IG-86's, IG-100's, Geo. Soldier's, etc., uniques (for crit chance up) with any crit chance leader (even HK-47) won't stack for crit chance, nor do their crit damage modifiers (if applicable) with any leader that modifies it.

Lastly, conflicts with active buffs and passive buffs. Yet to have conclusive evidence on this, but seems like crit chance passives/leader skills won't stack with a crit chance buff. Uncertain about active offense up buffs stacking with passives as of yet, but it doesn't appear to stack in Rey's case of her unique skill (which is a good thing, since she dishes out enough damage as is).

Hope this helps.

This is great.
I'm cutting and pasting because this is the type of stuff that should be listed here.

The following ability levels actually lower the raw damage done by the attack when you upgrade to them.
Asajj Ventress Cruel Strike 3 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/asajventress)
Old Daka Insightful Blow 3 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/daka)
Geonosian Soldier Aggressive Advance 5 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/geonosiansoldier)
HK-47 Superior Firepower 5 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/hk47)
Jawa Exploit Weakness 7 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/jawa)
Kit Fisto Lightsaber Mastery 3 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/kitfisto)
Kit Fisto Lightsaber Mastery 5 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/kitfisto)
URoRRuR'R'R Gaffi Stick Slam 3 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/urorrurrr)
Geonosian Soldier Swarm 5 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/geonosiansoldier)
IG-100 MagnaGuard Disruption 3 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/magnaguard)
Ugnaught Droid Experts 6 (https://swgohdb.com/heroes/ugnaught)

Ideally this will be a thread to help us decide whether we want to go after a character or not.
Can we get some officials to say which of these are still broken?

Biggs darklighter doesn't have ship sinergy and IG-88 doesn't dodge anything and says he has high dodge right in the description.

Does EA/CG not address Bugs and Issues?

This has been up for two weeks; one would expect them to appreciate the help.

JinSaotome

Magnaguards new speed up and offense up buffs dont activate at the start of his turn. You see the word speed above his head but it goes away and never an offense to buff.

Push2Stops

Wow, okay. Still nothing from EA/CG…
